Undiagnosed ADD

I have difficulty getting things in order when I have to do a task that requires organization.

I have problems remembering appointments or obligations.

I avoid or delay getting started on a task that requires a lot of thought.

I often misplace or have difficulty finding things at home and work.

Tonight I made pumpkin seeds from the pumpkins I roasted yesterday (for pie filling).

Then I headed to my office to do some paper work, and remembered I had bought this organizer after work today.

With labelmaker in hand, I got busy organizing all my cords, USB cords, chargers, etc. Since people with ADD have issues with finding things, I thought this would help. This organizing tool impressed Kirk. How about you? Good idea, huh? I wish it was mine, I saw it in Real Simple Magazine.

Then I remembered I am hosting a farewell open house this Saturday. There are 54 adults and 37 children invited. I needed to plan the menu !!

But I'm having difficulty getting things in order, AND I'm delaying getting started on this task that requires a lot of thought! I do, however, have LOTS of ideas swimming around in my head. I just need to put the menu down on paper. It will all come together. It always does.
